Or, at least, the filling. I copped out and bought a graham crust from the store.

I have never done this. Will I be crushed under the weight of my impending failure? Will I be lifted to some heavenly plateua on the wings of culinary victory? Will I end up in the middle of the road with some middling result? WE SHALL SEE.

Right now, I have pureed a pumpkin and an ambercup squash. I will report back once things start moving along (I'm also baking ~4 dozen cookies).

It's super easy! I grew my own pie pumpkins and made pumpkin pie from scratch one year for Thanksgiving and it was the best pumpkin pie I've ever had.

I did the one from the Voluptuous Vegan that was featured on the PPK blog.

I did this one, too, added an ambercup squash to make up for a pumpkin shortage, and plopped it all in a couple store-bought graham cracker crusts. It's currently in the oven with (I think) 16 minutes to go. How long do y'all bake yours for? The full 60 minutes? I'm nervous.
